Wee Alfie. How this guy still gets away with all he does and hasn’t been punted by the Ibrox club is beyond me.
Countless red cards that have cost him team points in the SPL, coming back from international duty late and missing a crucial Champions League qualifier last season, the Ibrox support STILL back the Colombian and support him even though he still remains a liability to the club.
It’s quite astonishing really.
And Kris Commons took aim at both the Ibrox support and the forward in his latest rant.
Commons was writing in his column in The Daily Mail [via Daily Record] when he said, “For the life of me, I don’t understand the continued support shown to Morelos by some sections of Rangers supporters. In their eyes, he can do no wrong. I found it embarrassing that some fans were actually singing his name when he got sent off against Hibs.
“Morelos was then pictured on the TV cameras laughing after Willie Collum had quite rightly shown him the red card for lashing out with an elbow. I don’t imagine Van Bronckhorst would have seen the funny side of it. Nor did captain James Tavernier, who branded the red card ‘stupid’. All of which begs the question.
“When Morelos is so unfit, untrustworthy and patently unreliable, why do Rangers fans continue to indulge him? This is a guy who quite literally laughs in their face when he costs the team what would have been a priceless victory given that they were down to ten men.“
Again, I find it incredible the continued support he continues to receive from them.
Or am I? Remember, this is a support that revered the kind of players who played imaginary flutes amongst other things.
But I suppose when you are desperate for success, ANY success, you will put up with anything right?
